ATLANTA, (November 6, 2023) -- Crawford & Company® (NYSE: CRD-A and CRD-B), is pleased to announce its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Based in Atlanta, Crawford & Company (NYSE: CRD‐A and CRD‐B) is a leading global provider of claims management and outsourcing solutions to insurance companies and self‐insured entities with an expansive network serving clients in more than 70 countries. The Company’s two classes of stock are substantially identical, except with respect to voting rights for the Class B Common Stock (CRD-B) and protections for the non-voting Class A Common Stock (CRD-A). More information is available on the Company's website.

GAAP Consolidated Results

Third Quarter 2023

Revenues before reimbursements of $325.6 million, up 10% over $294.9 million for the 2022 third quarter
Net income attributable to shareholders of $12.3 million, compared with a loss of $(15.1) million in the same period last year
Diluted earnings per share of $0.25 for both CRD-A and CRD-B, compared with diluted loss per share of $(0.31) for both CRD-A and CRD-B in the prior year third quarter

Non-GAAP Consolidated Results

Third Quarter 2023

Non-GAAP consolidated results for 2023 exclude the non-cash, after-tax adjustments for amortization of intangible assets of $1.7 million, non-service related pension costs of $1.6 million, and a contingent earnout adjustment of $2.1 million. Non-GAAP consolidated results for 2022 exclude a similar adjustment for amortization of intangible assets of $1.5 million, non-service related pension credits of $(0.4) million, a contingent earnout adjustment of $0.7 million, and a goodwill impairment of $20.9 million.

Foreign currency exchange rates increased revenues before reimbursements by $0.6 million or less than 1%. Presented on a constant dollar basis to the prior year, revenues before reimbursements totaled $325.0 million, increasing 10% over the 2022 third quarter
Net income attributable to shareholders, on a non-GAAP basis, totaled $17.7 million in the 2023 third quarter, compared with $7.5 million in the same period last year
Diluted earnings per share, on a non-GAAP basis, totaled $0.35 for CRD-A and $0.36 for CRD-B in the 2023 third quarter, compared with $0.15 for both CRD-A and CRD-B in the prior year third quarter
Consolidated adjusted operating earnings, on a non-GAAP basis, were $29.9 million, or 9.2% of revenues before reimbursements in the 2023 third quarter, more than doubling the $13.7 million, or 4.6% of revenues, in the 2022 period
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $38.6 million, or 11.9% of revenues before reimbursements in the 2023 third quarter, increasing 81% over the $21.4 million, or 7.2% of revenues, in the 2022 period

 


 

Management Comments

“We continued our momentum of growth and profit expansion in the third quarter of 2023 delivering our twelfth consecutive quarter of growth. Revenues grew by 10% to a new quarterly record and profits more than doubled compared to last year. We have built a strong foundation focused on operational excellence at Crawford, and our technology plus people strategy is driving growth and margin improvement across the business,” commented Rohit Verma, Chief Executive Officer of Crawford & Company.

“North America Loss Adjusting revenue grew more than 18% for the third quarter, driven by increased utilization, the addition of new clients, experts, and new account nominations. Broadspire saw record quarterly revenue fueled by business development efforts that have expanded our revenue base and continued growth in Medical Management services as we add workers' compensation clients. Our International segment also showed improved revenues and margins as our transformation of the international business continues. Platforms Solutions had meaningful growth in Contractor Connection and Subrogation, however there was offsetting softness in the Networks group where benign weather and a reduction in high-volume, low severity claim activity impacted results for the quarter. Platforms’ operating margin remained solid at mid-double digits.

“Overall, this was a very strong quarter for Crawford with healthy cash generation and further strengthening of our balance sheet.” Mr. Verma concluded.


Segment Results for the Third Quarter

North America Loss Adjusting

North America Loss Adjusting revenues before reimbursements were $79.4 million in the third quarter of 2023, increasing 18.8% from $66.8 million in the third quarter of 2022. Absent foreign exchange rate decreases of $(0.7) million, revenues would have been $80.1 million for the 2023 third quarter.

The segment had operating earnings of $10.5 million in the 2023 third quarter, increasing from $3.8 million in the third quarter of 2022. The operating margin was 13.2% in the 2023 quarter and 5.6% in the 2022 quarter.

International Operations

International Operations revenues before reimbursements were $98.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, up 13.9% from $86.1 million in the same period of 2022. Absent foreign exchange rate increases of $1.3 million, revenues would have been $96.8 million for the 2023 third quarter.

Operating earnings were $2.2 million in the 2023 third quarter, compared with a $(3.9) million operating loss in the 2022 period. The segment’s operating margin for the 2023 quarter was 2.2% as compared with (4.6)% in the 2022 quarter.

Broadspire

Broadspire segment revenues before reimbursements were $88.3 million in the 2023 third quarter, increasing 12.7% from $78.4 million in the 2022 third quarter.

Broadspire recorded operating earnings of $13.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, representing an operating margin of 15.3%, increasing from $6.2 million, or 7.9% of revenues, in the 2022 third quarter.

Platform Solutions

Platform Solutions revenues before reimbursements were $59.8 million in the third quarter of 2023, down (6.0)% from $63.7 million in the same period of 2022.

Operating earnings were $8.5 million in the 2023 third quarter, decreasing from the $10.1 million in the 2022 period. The segment’s operating margin for the 2023 quarter was 14.2% as compared with 15.8% in the 2022 quarter.

Unallocated Corporate and Shared Costs and Credits, Net

Unallocated corporate costs were $4.8 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared with $2.4 million in the same period of 2022. The increase in the 2023 third quarter was primarily due to increased incentive compensation and an increase in unallocated payroll tax and benefits costs.

2022 Goodwill Impairment

The Company recognized a $36.8 million pre-tax non-cash goodwill impairment in the third quarter of 2022. This charge was partially offset by a $15.9 million reduction in income tax expense, for a net impact of $20.9 million, or $0.43 per share. There was no goodwill impairment in 2023.

Other Matters

The Company recognized pretax contingent earnout expenses totaling $2.1 million and $0.9 million in the 2023 third quarter and comparable 2022 period, respectively, related to the fair value adjustment of earnout liabilities arising from recent acquisitions. This adjustment, which is not a component of operating earnings, is based on favorable changes to projections of acquired entities over the respective earnout periods, which span multiple years.

The Company recognized non-service pension costs of $2.2 million in the 2023 third quarter compared with credits of $(0.5) million in the 2022 period. Non-service pension costs represent the U.S. and U.K. non-service defined benefit pension costs, which are non-operating in nature as the U.S. plan is frozen and the U.K. plans are closed to new participants.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

The Company’s consolidated cash and cash equivalents position as of September 30, 2023, totaled $49.2 million, compared with $46.0 million at December 31, 2022. The Company’s total debt outstanding as of September 30, 2023, totaled $218.4 million, compared with $238.9 million at December 31, 2022.

The Company’s operations provided $68.1 million of cash during the first nine months of 2023, compared with $(16.2) million used in 2022. The increase in cash provided was primarily driven by improved earnings, changes in working capital, including a reduction in work in process, increases in accrued incentive compensation as compared to payouts for prior year performance, and an increase in income tax refunds received.

The Company made no contributions to its U.S. defined benefit pension plan and $1.8 million in contributions to its U.K. plans for the first nine months of 2023, compared with no contributions to the U.S. plan and $0.5 million to the U.K. plans in 2022.

During 2023, the Company didn't repurchase any shares of CRD-A, but repurchased 63,103 shares of CRD-B at an average share cost of $9.24. During the first nine months of 2022, the Company repurchased 2,656,474 shares of CRD-A and 963,472 shares of CRD-B at an average per share cost of $7.41 and $7.32, respectively. The total cost of share repurchases during 2023 was $0.6 million through September 30, 2023.

Conference Call

As previously announced, Crawford & Company will host a conference call on November 7, 2023, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss its third quarter 2023 results. The conference call can be accessed live by dialing 1-888-259-6580 and using Conference ID 94766677. A presentation for tomorrow’s call can also be found on the investor relations portion of the Company’s website, https://ir.crawco.com. The call will be recorded and available for replay through December 7, 2023. You may dial 1-877-674-7070 and use passcode 766677# to listen to the replay.

Non-GAAP Presentation

In the normal course of business, our operating segments incur certain out-of-pocket expenses that are thereafter reimbursed by our clients. Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), these out-of-pocket expenses and associated reimbursements are required to be included when reporting expenses and revenues, respectively, in our consolidated results of operations. In the foregoing discussion and analysis of segment results of operations, we do not include a gross up of segment expenses and revenues for these pass-through reimbursed expenses. The amounts of reimbursed expenses and related revenues offset each other in our results of operations with no impact to our net income or operating earnings. A reconciliation of revenues before reimbursements to consolidated revenues determined in accordance with GAAP is self-evident from the face of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Operating earnings is the primary financial performance measure used by our senior management and chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to evaluate the financial performance of our Company and operating segments, and make resource allocation and certain compensation decisions. Unlike net income, segment operating earnings is not a standard performance measure found in GAAP. We believe this measure is useful to others in that it allows them to evaluate segment and consolidated operating performance using the same criteria used by our senior management and CODM. Consolidated operating earnings represent segment earnings including certain unallocated corporate and shared costs, but before net corporate interest expense, stock option expense, goodwill impairment, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, contingent earnout adjustments, non-service pension costs and credits, income taxes and net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a term defined by GAAP and as a result our measure of adjusted EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. However, adjusted EBITDA is used by management to evaluate, assess and benchmark our operational results. The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA is relevant and useful information widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to shareholders of the Company with adjustments for depreciation and amortization, net corporate interest expense, goodwill impairment, contingent earnout adjustments, non-service pension costs and credits, income taxes and stock-based compensation expense.

Unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits include expenses and credits related to our Chief Executive Officer and Board of Directors, certain provisions for bad debt allowances or subsequent recoveries such as those related to bankrupt clients, certain unallocated professional fees and certain self-insurance costs and recoveries that are not allocated to our individual operating segments.

Income taxes, net corporate interest expense, stock option expense, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, contingent earnout adjustments, and non-service pension costs and credits are recurring components of our net income, but they are not considered part of our segment operating earnings because they are managed on a corporate-wide basis. Income taxes are calculated for the Company on a consolidated basis based on statutory rates in effect in the various jurisdictions in which we provide services and vary significantly by jurisdiction. Net corporate interest expense results from capital structure decisions made by senior management and the Board of Directors, affecting the Company as a whole. Stock option expense represents the non-cash costs generally related to stock options and employee stock purchase plan expenses which are not allocated to our operating segments. Amortization expense is a non-cash expense for finite-lived customer-relationship and trade name intangible assets acquired in business combinations. Contingent earnout adjustments relate to changes in the fair value of earnouts associated with our recent acquisitions. Non-service pension costs and credits represent the U.S. and U.K. non-service defined benefit pension costs, which are non-operating in nature as the U.S. plan was frozen in 2002 and the U.K. plans are closed to new participants. None of these costs relate directly to the performance of our services or operating activities and, therefore, are excluded from segment operating earnings to better assess the results of each segment's operating activities on a consistent basis.

Goodwill impairments arise from time to time due to various factors, but are not allocated to our operating segments since they historically have not regularly impacted our performance and are not expected to impact our future performance on a regular basis.

(1) The Company had a net loss for GAAP reporting during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, resulting in no additional dilutive securities added to the basic weighted average shares in calculating diluted weighted average shares for GAAP reporting as their impact would be anti-dilutive. As the Company has Non-GAAP positive net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, these dilutive securities were added back to calculate Non-GAAP earnings per share.

 

Further information regarding the Company’s operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, financial position as of September 30, 2023, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is shown on the attached unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results CRD-A & CRD-B (NYSE) ® Crawford & Company


Slide 2

Forward-Looking Statements & Additional Information Q3 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements, including statements about the expected future financial condition, results of operations and earnings outlook of Crawford & Company. Statements, both qualitative and quantitative, that are not statements of historical fact may be "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical experience or Crawford & Company's present expectations. Accordingly, no one should place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. Crawford & Company does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that may arise or not arise after the date the forward-looking statements are made. Results for any interim period presented herein are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or for any other future period. For further information regarding Crawford & Company, and the risks and uncertainties involved in forward-looking statements, please read Crawford & Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available at www.sec.gov or in the  Investor Relations portion of Crawford & Company's website at https://ir.crawco.com. Crawford's business is dependent, to a significant extent, on case volumes. The Company cannot predict the future trend of case volumes for a number of reasons, including the fact that the frequency and severity of weather-related claims and the occurrence of natural and man-made disasters, which are a significant source of cases and revenue for the Company, are generally not subject to accurate forecasting. Revenues Before Reimbursements ("Revenues") Revenues Before Reimbursements are referred to as "Revenues" in both consolidated and segment charts, bullets and tables throughout this presentation. Segment and Consolidated Operating Earnings Under the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 280, "Segment Reporting," the Company has defined segment operating earnings as the primary measure used by the Company to evaluate the results of each of its four operating segments. Segment operating earnings represent segment earnings, including the direct and indirect costs of certain administrative functions required to operate our business, but excludes unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits, net corporate interest expense, stock option expense, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, contingent earnout adjustments, non-service pension costs and credits, goodwill impairments, income taxes and net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. Earnings Per Share The Company's two classes of stock are substantially identical, except with respect to voting rights for the Class B Common Stock (CRD-B) and protections for the non-voting Class A Common Stock (CRD-A). More information available on the Company’s website. The two-class method is an earnings allocation method under which earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated for each class of common stock considering both dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings as if all such earnings had been distributed during the period. As a result, the Company may report different EPS for each class of stock due to the two-class method of computing EPS as required by ASC Topic 260 - "Earnings Per Share". Segment Gross Profit Segment gross profit is defined as revenues, less direct costs, which exclude indirect centralized administrative support costs allocated to the business. Indirect expenses consist of centralized administrative support costs, regional and local shared services that are allocated to each segment based on usage. Non-GAAP Financial Information For additional information about certain non-GAAP financial information presented herein, see the Appendix following this presentation.

Slide 28

Non-GAAP Financial Information Measurements of financial performance not calculated in accordance with GAAP should be considered as supplements to, and not substitutes for, performance measurements calculated or derived in accordance with GAAP. Any such measures are not necessarily comparable to other similarly-titled measurements employed by other companies. Reimbursements for Out-of-Pocket Expenses In the normal course of our business, our operating segments incur certain out-of-pocket expenses that are thereafter reimbursed by our clients. Under GAAP, these out-of-pocket expenses and associated reimbursements are required to be included when reporting expenses and revenues, respectively, in our consolidated results of operations. In this presentation, we do not believe it is informative to include in reported revenues the amounts of reimbursed expenses and related revenues, as they offset each other in our consolidated results of operations with no impact to our net income or operating earnings. As a result, unless noted in this presentation, revenue and expense amounts exclude reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses. Net Debt Net debt is computed as the sum of long-term debt, capital leases and short-term borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. Management believes that net debt is useful because it provides investors with an estimate of what the Company's debt would be if all available cash was used to pay down the debt of the Company. The measure is not meant to imply that management plans to use all available cash to pay down debt. Free Cash Flow Management believes free cash flow is useful to investors as it presents the amount of cash the Company has generated that can be used for other purposes, including additional contributions to the Company's defined benefit pension plans, discretionary prepayments of outstanding borrowings under our credit agreement, and return of capital to shareholders, among other purposes. It does not represent the residual cash flow of the Company available for discretionary expenditures. Q3 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS


Slide 29

Non-GAAP Financial Information (cont.) Segment and Consolidated Operating Earnings Operating earnings is the primary financial performance measure used by our senior management and chief operating decision maker to evaluate the financial performance of our Company and operating segments and make resource allocation and certain compensation decisions. Management believes operating earnings is useful to others in that it allows them to evaluate segment and consolidated operating performance using the same criteria our management and chief operating decision maker use. Consolidated operating earnings represent segment earnings including certain unallocated corporate and shared costs and credits, but before net corporate interest expense, stock option expense, amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, contingent earnout adjustments, non-service pension costs and credits, goodwill impairments, income taxes and net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. Segment and Consolidated Gross Profit Gross profit is defined as revenues less direct expenses which exclude indirect overhead expenses allocated to the business. Indirect expenses consist of centralized administrative support costs, regional and local shared services that are allocated to each segment based on usage. Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to evaluate, assess and benchmark our operational results and the Company believes that adjusted EBITDA is relevant and useful information widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to shareholders of the Company with recurring adjustments for depreciation and amortization, net corporate interest expense, contingent earnout adjustments, non-service pension costs and credits, goodwill impairments, income taxes and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA is not a term defined by GAAP and as a result our measure of adjusted EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted Revenue, Operating Earnings, Pretax Earnings, Net Income, Diluted Earnings per Share and EBITDA Included in non-GAAP adjusted measurements as an add back or subtraction to GAAP measurements, are impacts of amortization of customer-relationship intangible assets, contingent earnout adjustments, and non-service pension costs and credits, which arise from non-core items not directly related to our normal business or operations, or our future performance. Management believes it is useful to exclude these charges when comparing net income and diluted earnings per share across periods, as these charges are not from ordinary operations.
